"WHAT? Legs broken? There were six of you... Ah! The other party was an expert, invulnerable to blades and guns, and could even turn into a golden figure? Damn, have you guys been reading too many novels, or what?" Scarface looked at the six underlings he had sent out to carry out the mission. One had four broken ribs, and the other five had broken legs. What annoyed him the most was that he didn't know if these six were afraid of the punishment for failing the task or if their brains had been damaged, but their words were so unreliable.
"It's true, Brother Scarface! Everything we said is true. That guy is really an expert, not only fast but also incredibly strong. Big Ox's ribs were broken by just one kick, and he was kicked flying six to seven meters away!"
"Brother Scarface! We're telling the truth. When we hit him with our iron bars, he didn't even flinch!"
"Not only that, but the guy instantly turned into a golden figure, like... like... right, like the bronze figures in the TV shows about Shaolin Temple!"
"Brother Scarface, even when we all attacked him together, we couldn't beat him, and he broke all our legs."
"That guy was also very arrogant. He told us to pass a message, saying that if we had the guts, we should just come, and to tell Young Master Sun to wash his neck and wait!"
The six thugs spoke one after another, and Scarface's brows furrowed tightly. Despite his fierce and robust appearance, Scarface was actually quite meticulous. Otherwise, relying solely on bravery to survive in society would only make him a top-notch thug at best.
So, although he still found it hard to believe what his six underlings said, he remained cautious in his approach to the matter.
He Dong immediately sought out Wang Qiang to inquire about Sun Sheng's family background upon returning to the dormitory. From some indirect information, he knew that Sun Sheng's family background was not simple. To take revenge on Sun Sheng, he needed to know his enemy well.
Wang Qiang was initially puzzled by He Dong's intentions, but when He Dong recounted the events of the evening, Wang Qiang immediately started cursing. The other roommates also joined in the condemnation of Sun Sheng, and some even suggested going to beat him up.
And the fat guy took immediate action, quickly editing a short video of Sun Sheng's bet with He Dong, where the loser had to kneel and kowtow, and the subsequent basketball game, and uploaded it online. Although this video tarnished Sun Sheng's reputation, it also brought He Dong a lot of trouble, but that was a story for later.
He Dong didn't want to involve others, as he knew that among his roommates, only Wang Qiang and Hua Shao had some background. The others were from ordinary families and were not suitable for this level of conflict.
However, everyone was extremely agitated. Even Yan Yan, who usually focused on music, said with righteous indignation, "Third Brother, I know a big brother at the bar where I perform. Since he can find people, we can find people too!"
"Everyone, everyone! I appreciate your good intentions, but I have to take revenge myself to truly feel satisfied! So I hope everyone won't get involved in this matter," He Dong said hurriedly.
"Third Brother, we are brothers. What are brothers for if not to share both good and bad times? Now that you're in trouble, if we act like cowards, can we still call ourselves brothers?" Lin Dongliang said loudly.
"Second Brother, if you really consider me a brother, listen to me on this. If I really can't handle it myself, I will definitely ask for your help!" He Dong said seriously.
"Alright, everyone, let's listen to Third Brother!" Wang Qiang finally spoke.
Through the diamond trading, Wang Qiang had also noticed that He Dong was different from ordinary people, so he had great confidence in He Dong.
Of course, to provide He Dong with the greatest possible assistance, Wang Qiang shared everything he knew about Sun Sheng's family.
"Sun Sheng's ancestors were said to be bandits who were incorporated during the war. But because they had no education and only knew how to fight, they declined after the founding of the country!"
"By the time Sun Sheng's father, Sun Ruimin, came along, the family produced a capable person. He started in real estate and founded the current Guangtai Group."
"The current Guangtai Group has three subsidiaries, including the largest real estate company in our Tianyang City, Guangtai Real Estate, the pharmaceutical company Guangtai Pharmaceuticals managed by his uncle, and the paper mill Guangtai Paper Factory managed by his other uncle."
"Sun Sheng also has an aunt, Sun Ruian, who dotes on him more than his parents. The most important thing is that Sun Ruian's husband is the first vice-mayor of our Tianyang City!"
"Also, it's said that the Sun family has connections in the military. After all, they had people who fought in the war. And now, his uncle's eldest son is in a special forces unit in a certain military region, and he's even a trainer!"
After listening to Wang Qiang's account, He Dong couldn't help but draw a deep breath. He didn't expect the Sun family to be such a massive entity, but this didn't discourage him; instead, it further fueled his determination.
Of course, He Dong's strong confidence came from the mysterious summoning space. He Dong believed that as long as he had time, he could definitely surpass the Sun family. But now, He Dong had everything he needed except time.
Feeling the urgency of time, He Dong didn't continue his intimate moments with Lin Xuan the next day. He used the excuse of being busy at the pet hospital and went straight there. As always, Lin Xuan was understanding and supportive of He Dong's work.
Saturday and Sunday were the busiest days at the pet hospital. As soon as He Dong arrived, he immediately got to work. By the time he was ready to take a break at noon, he had already earned ten summoning points.
"Now I can finally summon the last Level 2 pet! After Level 2 comes Level 3, and after Level 3 comes Level 4... Wow!" He Dong became more and more excited, even laughing to himself, which startled his employees, making them think their boss was sick and almost calling 120.
Just as He Dong was getting carried away with excitement, two men in police uniforms walked in. One of them shouted arrogantly, "Who is He Dong?"
"I am He Dong. Who are you? What do you want?" He Dong frowned and asked.
"Who are we? Are you blind? We are the police." The arrogant police officer continued to act arrogantly.
"He Dong, you are suspected of intentional injury. Come with us!" The other police officer's expression was also very cold, and his eyes carried a look of disdain, as if he were superior and above everyone else.
